To the Editor of the Globe:
Charles Cavileer arrived at Pembina, near
the boundary line, in the spring of 1851, and
was appointed the first collector of customs
when the district was first organized. ABOUT
year afterward he resigned for the purpose
of entering into partnership with n. W. Kilt
son, now living in ST. Paul, which partner
a p continued several Years. He was ap-
pointed postmaster in 1865, at which tune
and for ten afterward there was scarcely IL
civilized settlement within hundreds of miles
OF Pembina. At that time in such pace
the postmaster appointed on account OF
his responsibility, ana not for political con-
sderalonS. MIR. Cavileer remained as post
master until the boOmS enjoying the per-
sonal friendship OF many VINO are now the
richest and foremost men of Minnesota and
most influential amongst the Democrats of
this state. When Pembina became a city he
was unanimously elected mayor, which office
he has held unoppQsed until the present time.

ing health. resigned the postmastershp. He is

was appointed to succeed him. and was
locally as popular q selection as could have
been made. Last fall he voted for Mr.. Day
aud the other Democratic candidates, he
openly acted with the party and was prolni-
Winchester house, in November last, to cele-
b. ate the Democratic victory in Pembipa
county. A small clique of misunderstanding
and unprincipled adventures, without any
local Influence whatever, set up job to
depose this worthy every way pub
lie official, and with the craft
that always churacterizes such peo-
pie, and with speciouS argument roped in
Mr. Webb who is personally, all the conspirit-
ors are not, and worthy any reward his party
could give him, for valuable services rem
dered, and the clique had it so fixed that if
Mr. Webb received the appointment they
would claim victory, and If he lost they
had grievience 1t was tails you lose, heads
win. When, the facts of The case became
public, Democrats and Republicans alike
Joined hands together in trying to get Mr..
Cavleer retained in Office, as they would to-
day to try and advance Mr Webb's interests
outside of what was looked upon as Il palpa--
BILE injustice, and into which he was supposed
to have been led by designing men, and his
interiors in every respect. If Mr.. P. H.
Kelly and Commodore kittson are to be cred
tied with the retention of Mr.. Cavileer in Of
fee, they are thanked by the voice Of public
opinion at Pembina.

Senator slcMilIan,s Sacrifice.


TO the Editor OF the Globe.
One OF the most magnanimous acts of
ancient or modern times was the withdrawal
of Hon. S. j. R. Mcmillan from the sena-
toral race after ascertaining that his only
following was "Dear Senator Finseth." In
the GLOBE of the 18th a special telegram
from Washington announces the fact that
Senator Mcmillan says ''having served the
pubic for thirty years I think I have the
right to look out for myself An unsophsti-
Gated gentleman from the rural districts
might infer that the goody, gooiy statesman
has given his valuable time to the public
without compensation. Let US see: Salary
as judge ls years, $4,000: salary as senator
II years, $4,000 mileage, sar 81 O00-S13O. 900,
or an annual average of about $4,400 His
son, as the clerk of one of the senate conf
mlttees. will. like his father, have an oppor-
tuniy Ito work for himself after March A.
Will anyone be kind enough to mention a
single act of congress of which our good
senator was the originator? Will anyone pro-
duce single speech made by Mr. Mcmillan
since he entered the senate? Has he not been
well paid for the thirty years he has given to
the country?-Could he have done as well
mad he been left ITO work for himself?''

afternoon, Mrs. Wilson questioned him
about the case and he replied: Nothing

AN INTERESTING EPISODE.

Gov. McGili and His late Opponent
First Presented TO Each 1th"r at
che knights Of the Grip BANQUET.
An event that is worthy to be made a
parl of the history of this state took place

Or. Ames had no idea of how the man
cooked who he had made it SO unpleasant

pictures published in the newspapers. and
while McGill had seen the doctor. who had
leld him such an even race. against odds.
Ae had never graSped his hand.
1t happened that the governor and the
defeated candidate were seated but three
DiateS apart among the honored guess.
When the festivities were well under way.
Or. Ames turned to the man next him and
said: They tell HE Gov. McGill is here.

Speculation Defended.

IL lbS HullOl VI tuS 0lObC.
L notice in your Sunday issue a reflection
upon bucketshops and speculation in grain
aud stocks, and to which you are pleased to
apply the term gambling. 1t is an easy mat
ter TO observe the advantage paper like
yours has TO cast unjust reflections upon any
occupation or profession if you choose to use
you colt INNS for that purpose. l would like
to ask what would be the difference between
buying 10000 bushels of grain lin case
thought it was going to bring better price
in the near future) and deposting 5 or 10
cents per buShel to secure the trade. and
buying an interest in q stock of merchandise,
paying a part q W 4 and venturing the chance
of selling for more than ! paid. According to
your theory if Il person bychance had any thing
ii would be foolish for any one else to buy it,
or if they had nothing but money it would be
equally foolish for them to think of buying.
In other words, you do not believe in buying
Or selling. Still you admit the market must
20 up or down, yet onlv about two out of ten
make profit. ] suppose the other eight out
of the ten muSt lie where about nineteen out
of every twenty who engage iii the different
branches of business are. Men often, too
often, engage in bus ness too extensively for
their resources. and when time of depreS-
sion comes hey are wiped out of business
which would ultimately, should it have con-
tinued, been grand success. Gambling. a
l understand the word, applies to games of
chance, usually of a mechanical nature,
which is equ lily liable to win or lose, except
ing when manipulated by the operator and
which nave no conditions to govern them If
buying and selling our products and the
stocks of our enterprises is gambling, simply
because we don't go to market with sack of
wheat 10 our hand or on our backs or bring q
car W eel or part of q locomotive with US to
represent our interest in some railroad or be-
cause the man who sells city lot don bring
the lot with him to turn it over to the buyer,
why not call all kinds of buying and selling
gambling and find some other name for
winning or loosing ny cards, fortune-wheels
and such which have no relation to things of
value. If buying and selling grain and stocks
on part payment is gambling then buying
and selling anything on part payment must
be gambling. Therefore if / were to meet a
man who did not gamole would know I had
met either fool or an angel.
